Keratoconus Posterior

Keratoconus is a progressive disease of the cornea that can lead to serious complications such as vision loss. One of the most common types of keratoconus is posterior keratoconus (also known as Butler's keratoconus).

Posterior keratoconus is characterized by changes in the shape of the cornea, which lead to its deformation and poor vision. These changes can be caused by a variety of factors, including genetic predisposition, eye injuries, infections and other diseases.

Symptoms of posterior keratoconus may include blurred vision, double vision, headaches, and eye fatigue. If left untreated, posterior keratoconus can lead to vision loss and even blindness.

Treatment for posterior keratoconus involves the use of special lenses or surgery. In some cases, cornea replacement may be necessary.

It is important to note that posterior keratoconus is a condition that requires regular monitoring by an ophthalmologist. Regular examinations will help detect changes in the early stages and prevent serious complications.
